Arrow Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 - Nismo Z-tune

Hello,

Almost done, a red underbody lighting will follow.

I installed the car a decent bodykit which produces a nice aggressive look.

The paint is just so awesome. In real you can see shining the silver layer through the candy red. The Red has such a deep glazing effect. Awesome!

The photos are not nearly put across how great the effect is.

I have sometimes used the flash when taking photos so you can see a bit of what I mean.

The colour is called New American Candy (NAC) Deep Red to Black from Star Paint.

On the radiator you can see the "Nismo" logo.
So and maybe you can see it in the pictures, but do not think so.
The "o" I have replaced with the Mars symbol (The Masculine Icon).

As a little joke, just a Men's vehicle.

Where do I start?! I love the color and all of the intricate details! Did you free-hand the decal under the marker light?

i think this belongs in the mini-z custom bodies group since its not an xmod body. haha :P

i like the paint, but you might have overdid it with the gloss - It really takes away from the straight-edged details of the bodykit. great work though! do you have any work in progress pics?


if you keep posting on this thread, i might revive all the threads i've failed to do so in the past + year.
